    Derka i'm not attacking you here, so please don't take it that way. This take from Ryan Clark about the generational talent is pretty fucking stupid though. Recruiting services and every school in the country all agreed that he was the best QB in his class. He had a 1.000 rating for fucks sake. His arm talent is on the same tier as Lawrence, Andrew Luck, etc. Anyone who saw him play all agreed. What we're just going to fucking act like that didn't happen? How is there any evidence that he isn't a generational player? There is absolutely zero evidence that Bryce Underwood is a generational talent. The Michigan QB room was a dumpster fire. You don't pay someone that much to sit the bench. The family said from the beginning that he was going to sit and take his time - there was no rush. If there is a problem with Arch I think it was that his family allowed him just to sit back and learn rather than push him to take the job from Quinn.

    This response is just as reactionary and stupid as those who hyped him to the moon. The kid sucked ass last weekend and deserves his lumps but he also deserves the benefit of time as the starter and time to learn. You can count on 1 hand the number of QBs in college who make that throw down the sideline in the 4th quarter. Ryan Clark can miss me with this bullshit. 

    Ryan Clark don't know shit about CFB and isn't worth paying attention to in this scenario at all. 

    but come on man, you can't say "look at the 1.000 rating" when this is Bryce Underwood's rating:

    This. I couldn't put my finger on it, but he just never looked 'right' to me. Maybe a nagging injury or some weird kink in his mechanics has popped up? Who knows. But he always looked relaxed and loose last year. He never looked that way last Saturday.

    i'm not saying if he was hurt or not but i don't remember seeing him do the "row" anywhere as often last year as he did saturday. pulled some of the all plays videos from last year and didn't see him doing it in them either. just seems...not great. 

    again, may be just uncomfortable with the game @ the shoe, or may be something more

    it was a very vanilla gameplan. 

    need to find someone who has updated info on this from SIS Pro.

    Bud Davis did a big look at Texas (analytics guy, UF guy - looked at it as a UF opponent) and shared this a few weeks ago. 

    keep seeing people say that re gameplan, REALLY interested to see the updated data/numbers from game 1 - but don't have time time yet to pay the 15/week for this week to see if the same graphics exist over there or if he did additional work to make it happen.

    Eh. Simmons and the D in general played well. He didn't light up the stat sheet because we didn't really create the situations for it. Ohio State had 200 yards of offense. Bitching about individual defensive stats is misguided. The game plan worked. 

    anyone complaining about the defense are idiots.

    Did anyone actually watch the Illinois State game? OU sucks, even more than usual. They have zero playmakers, the OL is terrible, the running game is hot garbage. They were shutout in the 3rd qtr, still passing late in the 4th qtr and played all of their starters until the final whistle. This was against an FCS team. They put up 14 points in the 4th, with a late touchdown, to make the score look presentable. 

    damn dude, you weren't kidding about how bad they were running it.

    thought i'd look at highlight yards to see how they did there (basically yards that go to the RB vs the OL) they averaged 0.97 per opportunity which is horrible, especially against that level of competition.

    for comparison, ISU averaged 5.17 highlight yards per opportunity. Texas averaged 1.58 per opportunity vs tOSU and tOSU averaged 0.45 against the Texas defense. 

    OU got "stuffed" (yards gained <=0) at the same rate vs ISU at 19% as tOSU did vs Texas (21%) and got "stopped" (yards gained <=2) at basically the same rate as tOSU (OU = 45%, tOSU = 50% - with the clear difference that the Texas defense >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Ill. State defense. 

    they basically gave 1/3rd of their carries to dudes and got nothing out of them.

    did i need to go this in depth? obv not but fuck those guys, if they can't run for shit vs Ill. State they are going to struggle against basically their entire schedule.

    Yep, this track sucks. Glad it’s gone.

    I mean, pretty universally the ones they are adding aren't great. More Miamis and Madrid ain't great for anyone.

    At least this track has some cool banked turns vs being some race in a parking lot (I know Madrid had a banked turn)

    I just want cool and good tracks instead of these assholes chasing money.

    It hit his hand.  And he jumped.  Both feet left the ground.  Why?  It touches his hand a foot off his back shoulder.  He never stops.  I’m not sure he slows.  Then leaves his feet.  You can take a screenshot with the ball out of the hand with the ball out in front of Wingo.  It’s like he saw it late or was trying to keep his stride for the big play rather than just catch it.  But sure, go with your initial impression and dead set on any alternative theory.

     

    Ah the arrogance of the white man.

     

    If you think the issue with that play was Ryan fucking Wingo, you don't know ball and need to go back to posting at fucking OB.

    Oh no, I totally agree with you. I was also one wanting him out of that seat because he wasn't doing anything. I was not mad about it.

    I do think that his, along with Bottas being experienced, should be a good transition for the new team. For just a couple, maybe even just one season, seasons to help them get their feet wet.

    To be fair though, Max ran away from everyone not named Norris and LeClerc last season. And while he was wrong about Yuki's point total, he has 10, I think his point still stands and Redbull #2.

    have anything about their contract lengths been announced or just the 2 drivers? haven't seen anything about their reserve driver or junior driver group either...

    just want them to be successful, embrace the American-ness of it just so it fucks Gene Haas in some small way

    I'm in the same boat as you, I'd really only want to buy pearl snaps going forward. Do they not have pearl snap ultralights? Is it just lighter shirts?

    Lol wife got that for my kiddo. 

    they are basically "lighter" with buttons, just one pocket, no logo and no big zip tech pocket thing.

    no pearl snap just buttons. if they had pearl snaps id buy them all the time.

    I have a solid blue/aqua colored one from when they first came out, no pilling. The checkered one also no pilling. The newest UT pearl snap, pilling.

    I don't have an ultra-light, how do those compare to their regular shirts, if you don't mind?

    thank you for the cropped view, the pic on my screen looked blurry so figured blowing it up would make it worse. appreciate it!

    re: ultralight - theres a guy i know who wears almost exclusively poncho who flipped his whole wardrobe over to them because of the pilling issues he had with others

    i only have the one but i also only really buy their pearl snaps. if they made ultralights in pearl snap i'd buy those exclusively. overall, really like it and if it doesn't pill (hasn't over a few months) that's a game changer. highly recommend it

    He’s got a great point   👆🏻

    just want to point out he finished 285 points behind his teammate last year

    Oscar Piastri scored 292 total points

    Carlos Sainz scored 290 total points

    George Russell scored 245 points

    Does the problem go well beyond just him and involve the car? absolutely

    but anyone expecting him to suddenly do well in a new constructor? out of their fucking mind. and tbh, not sure he does any better than the guys in the seat this year if he kept his spot another season.

    So I had one made

    IMG_3800.thumb.jpeg.0d9e6db8ce07f2a4f94611bc3e4e540a.jpeg

    This is the handiwork of [NAME REDACTED]in [WHERE I LIVE]. It’s all chain stitched and is perfect, imo. Shirt is a 70’s, long tail pearl snap shirt that is Pantone perfect. Picked it up today to pack for Columbus, where I’m hoping it isn’t ruined by piss stains (not mine, mind you). 

    mind sharing a close up of that label?

    Mine's doing the same thing. Weirdly some of my other pancho's have not started to do that yet. Maybe it's a different material mix. 

    I've got a mix of Nike polos, that pancho, and a Peter Millar black windbreaker. 

    I like some of the new stuff from Roback (their hoodies, NOT their shirts), and I like the stuff from Mizzen and Maine quite a bit, but I balk at shelling out $130 bucks for a polo when there are so many other options. Criquet has some team stuff too, and I love Criquet, but as said, I've got plenty of other stuff already. If any of that helps you. 

    the pilling happens all the fucking time on Poncho's solid color shirts but not usually on their patterned/checked shirts. saw you said above that you hang dry 100% of the time - same. it helps but their quality has gotten less good. now their patterned/checked a lot of the time start having this weird pulling thing on the upper right hand side

    i've been told it doesn't happen on their ultralights as well but the one i have now isn't old enough to pill.

    Go to any in the valley and see if you still believe that. If you want better pizza down there you need to go to an actual pizza spot. 
    I imagine among fast food pizza up here it’s also at the top. I’m not saying it’s Dough or Il Forno or Fralos. But is it better than Pizza Hut, Dominos, Cicis, and Little Caesars? Yes.

    Yeah that's not what you said, moving those goalposts!

    Unironically really fucking good pizza. RGV people know. 

    This may be the worst take you have posted on this hell site we all love.

    Seriously. Peter Pipers is not "really fucking good pizza" - passable maybe, but not really fucking good unless you are an actual child.

    The hilarious thing is that the Republicans are going to fuck Tesla over pretty damned hard, both in the rebate stuff, but also working against Tesla's large-scale storage batteries.

    And the world's richest man is afraid of them.

    Going to? Those dudes are fucking toast.

    Beef ribs are about the easiest think to smoke.  I don't remember the last time I ordered one at a barbecue joint.

    Owners love them. Nice margins, can't screw them up and no shrinkage when it comes to bones 👀
